With the country's digital payments industry expected to touch USD 500 billion by 2020, he stressed it is essential that card payment systems offer completely secure methods to safeguard users from all possible threats.
He said demonetisation is a great push for transformation into a cashless economy, but warned that the threat of digital transactions falling prey to frauds and can be an impediment.
Turakhia said the product was slated for a December release, but in the wake of the demonetisation, they advanced the launch by a few weeks.
Zeta will operate on a commission model for revenues, and will work out other discounts, offers and partnerships to popularise the product going forward, he said.
Founded by Turakhia, and Ramki Gaddipati, Zeta has over 300 employees, in 9 Indian cities. It also has an employee benefit product called Optima.
